As introduced, authorizes a retired campus police officer to be reemployed in a position covered by TCRS as a law enforcement officer without the loss or suspension of the retired officer's TCRS benefits; extends the repeal date for the provision authorizing retired law enforcement officers to be reemployed without the loss or suspension of retirement benefits from June 30, 2025, to June 30, 2027. - Amends TCA Title 8, Chapter 36, Part 8.

AI Summary

This bill modifies Tennessee's retirement benefits law for law enforcement personnel, specifically expanding provisions for retired campus police officers. Under the proposed changes, a retired campus police officer can be reemployed in a position covered by the Tennessee Consolidated Retirement System (TCRS) as a law enforcement officer without losing or suspending their retirement benefits. The bill also extends the sunset date for this provision from June 30, 2025, to June 30, 2027, giving retired campus police officers additional time to return to law enforcement work while continuing to receive their existing retirement benefits. By amending the existing statute, the legislation aims to provide more flexibility for retired campus police officers who wish to continue working in law enforcement, potentially helping to address staffing needs while allowing these officers to supplement their income without penalty.
